  • ESCAP PPP Case Study #1
    Public-Private Partnerships Case Study #1 Traffic Demand Risk: The case of Bangkok’s Skytrain (BTS) by Mathieu Verougstraete and Isabelle Enders (March 2014) The following case study examines the issue of traffic demand risk and sheds light on how the problem of inaccurate ridership forecasts can impact a PPP project by using the example of the Bangkok SkyTrain. TRAFFIC DEMAND RISK FIGURE 1 : ACTUAL/FORECAST TRAFFIC Even though literature is rich about theory and practice of traffic forecasting, insufficient attention has been paid to the predicted accuracy of traffic forecasting models and the consequences of occurring errors. Emperical studies suggest however that traffic forecasts in the transport sector are characterized by large errors and considerable optimism bias.1 This statement goes in line with the review conducted on PPP projects financed by the European Investment Bank which states that major issues in road projects BANGKOK BTS: CASE SUMMARY occurred because of traffic performance has been overestimated. Findings disclose that Bangkok covers about 606 square miles 1/2 of toll road projects failed to meet their and is densely populated.

  • SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Doi:10.1038/Nature11520
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION doi:10.1038/nature11520 Other intraplate earthquakes in the India-Australia plate off Sumatra and Coulomb stress changes for a selection of possible intraplate faults. Extensional events at the trench wall are located in positive Coulomb stress change areas for receiver faults striking parallel to the trench both off Nicobar Islands (~N180°E) and off Nias (~N135°E) (see Figure A1). Any Aceh or Nias slip distribution that has weak surface displacement does not predict a positive Coulomb stress change in these areas close to the trench toe. These normal faults are active as a result of extensional bending stresses at the trench wall46,47 that are unrelated to the NW-SE compression in the Wharton Basin. The strike of the nodal planes shown on Figure A1 is following the trench line orientation. These normal faults are neo-formed faults since the normal fault fabric (N105°E to N110°E) is not perpendicular enough to the trench-normal bending stresses to be reactivated (with the exception of the two southernmost events in 2005, in the Wharton fossil spreading ridge area). Slip on neo-formed reverse faults perpendicular to the NW-SE intraplate P-axis is not favoured by the Aceh and Nias earthquakes (Figure A1), which is in agreement with the historical style of deformation in the Wharton Basin. A minority of thrust faults mechanisms is recorded, while most of the events are strike-slip. Figure A2 shows increased Coulomb stress change on N110°E oriented vertical planes (right- lateral slip) when compared to N15°E oriented vertical planes (left-lateral slip, Fig.

Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Myミャンマーanmar ラオスLaos Thailandタイ Banバンコクgkok ◎ カンボジアCambodia プロジェクトサイトProject Site Map of the project area Bangkok Subway (MRT Blue Line) 1.1 Background Accompanying the rapid economic development in Bangkok starting in the 1990s, regular traffic congestion and the associated air pollution became evident in the urban area. The Thai government drew up the Bangkok Mass Transit Master Plan (produced by the Office of the Commission for the Management of Road Traffic (OCMRT) and hereinafter referred to as the “master plan”) in 1995 based on the 7th National Economic and Social Development Plan (1992–1996) for the purpose of developing a mass transit network and also for developing a network of ordinary roads and expressways to achieve steady economic growth, together with resolving the above-mentioned traffic congestion and air pollution. Furthermore, the development of the mass transit network proposed in the master plan is also specified in the subsequent 8th National Economic and Social Development Plan (1997–2000), and it is positioned as an extremely important national project in Thailand. The plan for the Bangkok mass transit system, part of the master plan, involves the construction of five lines that will radiate out and join the Bangkok Metropolitan Area (BMA) with the Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR)1 together with creating a network 1 The Bangkok Metropolitan Region includes Bangkok, which is a special administrative area, and the surrounding five provinces of Samut Prakan, Pathum Thani, Samut Sakhon, Nakhon Pathom, and Nonthaburi.

  • An Inventory and Assessment of National Urban Mobility in Thailand
    Development of a National Urban Mobility Programme - an Inventory and Assessment of National Urban Mobility in Thailand A project of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) in collaboration with the Thai Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning (OTP) Final Report November 2019 Development of a National Urban Mobility Programme Project Background Transport is the highest energy-consuming sector in 40% of all countries worldwide, and causes about a quarter of energy-related CO2 emissions. To limit global warming to two degrees, an extensive transformation and decarbonisation of transport is necessary. The TRANSfer project’s objective is to increase the efforts of developing countries and emerging economies for climate-friendly transport. The project acts as a mitigation action preparation facility and thus, specifically supports the implementation of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) of the Paris Agreement. The project supports several countries (including Peru, Colombia, the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia) in developing greenhouse gas mitigation measures in transport. The TRANSfer project is implemented by GIZ and funded by the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the German Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) and operates on three levels. Mobilise Prepare Stimulate Facilitating the Preparation of Knowledge products, Training, MobiliseYourCity Mitigation Measures and Dialogue Partnership Standardised support Based on these experiences, TRANSfer The goal of the multi- packages (toolkits) are is sharing and disseminating best stakeholder partnership developed and used for the practises. This is achieved through the MobiliseYourCity, which is preparation of selected development of knowledge products, currently being supported by mitigation measures. As a the organisation of events and trainings, France, Germany and the result, measures can be and the contribution to an increasing European Commission, is that prepared more efficiently, level of ambition.

  • Investigation on Physical Distancing Measures for COVID-19 Mitigation of Rail Operation in Bangkok, Thailand
    Investigation on Physical Distancing Measures for COVID-19 Mitigation of Rail Operation in Bangkok, Thailand Somsiri Siewwuttanagul1*, Supawadee Kamkliang2 & Wantana Prapaporn3 1,2 The Cluster of Logistics and Rail Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Mahidol University, Thailand 3 Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Saga University, Japan * Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] Received 5/5/2020; Revised 2/6/2020; Accepted 23/6/2020 Print-ISSN: 2228-9135, Electronic-ISSN: 2258-9194, doi: 10.14456/built.2020.7 Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic is the global health crisis and was declared a pandemic on 11th April 2020 by the World Health Organization (WHO). The most common solution is physical distancing which refers to avoiding close contact with other people by keeping a physical space between others. The COVID-19 pandemic is challenging mass transit services which are usually crowded with passengers. There is a need for an effort to save lives and stop spreading the virus, but metro transit still needs to provide services to people. Although the metro operators in Bangkok had a quick response to this pandemic by implementing physical distancing measures at stations and in passenger cars, effective levels of these measures are still under question. This study compares the physical distancing data surveyed during the COVID-19 pandemic and close contact transmission by breathing which defined the risk distance. The study investigates passenger levels of infection risk from close contact transmissions by breathing during the time at the metro station, based on the location where activities take place in metro stations: concourse level, platform level, and in the passenger car during the commute.
